Howard said John the Stutterer is going to come by today. He said that he turned on the whole show when he found out that Ralph is paid more money than he's paid. Howard said he's not sure if he's wrong about that. Howard said he felt that John wanted a place to talk where he's not interrupted but he dropped out of doing the show completely. Howard said if he had put him on the phone for an hour he would have been fine. He wanted to be paid to do the show and Tim only had so much money in the budget to do it. Howard said he doesn't know why they're even paying Ralph to do his show. Howard said it's good practice to do a show like that.
Howard said he's going to tell John that it's not very manly to try and ruin things for Ralph. Howard said Ralph may get his money taken away.

Howard said John stopped calling into the show and he listened because he was a fan. Howard said now it's all about the money. He said he has to talk to John about that now. He said he gave him a shot like he did with Riley. He said he thought Riley could go somewhere and get a job. Howard said he gave him an hour to talk on the air and sell his stuff. Riley started to see it as a job. Howard said his show is horrible and he should go prove that he's wrong if he doesn't believe it. Howard said if Riley is on the channel or not it's irrelevant. Howard said he makes no extra money if they're on or not. Howard said everyone gets it in their head that there's money to be made there. That's just not the case.

Howard said John used to love calling the show. That's what he's going to tell him today. He said he hasn't suffered without him on the show. He said that's what he'll tell him today too. Howard said Riley used to be fine with just calling into the show. Now he has his own show and he's not happy.

After the break Howard came right back and had John the Stutterer come in. Howard said he'll never understand why he gave up his radio show. Fred played him in with a song parody to the tune of Crazy Train.

John asked where Robin was. Howard said she doesn't like to come into work anymore. He said she's on an ISDN line at home. Howard said he was hearing some noise from the mic that John was using. Howard said he's just going to put up with it. Gary came in and switched to another one.

Howard asked John if he's alright. John said he's fine but he was in a rush to get there and when he got off the train he jogged and now he's sweaty. Howard said he's late and he only has a few minutes for him. John said he feels horrible and looks horrible. Howard said he has to stop that.

Howard said he thought that John liked doing his radio show. He said that he heard that he got upset when he found out that Ralph gets a salary for doing his show. John said he can't avoid thinking about that. Howard said John got a show and he's able to get his thoughts out on the air. He said it's not a money making proposition. He said that they shouldn't be paying Ralph either.
